New oiling system


This is the oil cooler module with all its new adapters, it is sport some fresh new goodrich's and parker hydraulic connectors with an mechanical autometer oil pressure sending unit.

Not to mention the STOCK - Oil temperature regulator that stops flow to the cooler when oil temps are too low.
